It’s my work, but it’s also my hobby and I really love it. Tanya: Thank you for such a good compliment:) When I was a kid I was addicted to amazing views, beautiful things and bright clothes. My dream was to have a professional camera so I can to have my own time-machine and to stop time and to show all these beauties to my friends and family. I worked as a waiter to earn money and to buy it. At the age of 17, my dream came true and I got my first professional camera. Since then I took photos of every single moment and people. It was lifestyle photography. After few years I started to work as a photographer, I took photos for weddings and some fashion photo shoots. Along with photography, I started to learn Photoshop, LightRoom, and Capture One software. After some time I found that I
I mean if your gonna model your gonna have to look into your lifestyle habits, but I would definately be hydrated and sleep well before a shoot! Mcqueen, like very edgy photos CBMag: Nick Knight bebe! Shaholly: haha! (She knows I’m a big fan) I do like when it’s different and when it’s executed well. CBMag: I’m with you on that. It’s so easy at this stage of my experience to tell what I consider to be good work from maybe not so good work. Or maybe how experienced is this photographer. You can REALLY tell. I think that’s your eye and that it really takes time to develop your eye for detail and what just generally looks good. I thought when I first started shooting years ago that blurred skin and really over saturated colors looked amazing! But now I look back and think my god theis work is terrible! Shaholly: Haha. Yea you develop your eye. For sure. CBMag: And I think that’s very important for people to pay attention to, to learn
what is looking good, what is working and what isn’t.
Shaholly: Well thats the thing to keep in mind as a model as a beginner is that what you think might be a good photo at the beginning you might go back later and look at your work and say “Ok, this isn’t my best work and I’m going to take this out”. And it’s a good idea to only use your best photos in your portfolio that you ever show. You don’t need a lot.
CBMag: What do you think is a good round number to keep in your book? Shaholly: At least 5. 5 SOLID looks. If your just starting out, 5 different, well executed photos. Especially in a print portfolio if people like to do those anymore.
CBMag: People DON’T do them anymore, but I think they should because it is different and it stands out. I went to this show this past weekend and they had some printed work and I was

Ry-n: The first thing that I thought of when I was presented with the theme of liquid of wet was not to go to the beach! Haha. Because as fun as the beach is, they are beautiful here but everyone shoots at the beach all the time, so I wanted to do something a little different. For me I, because I am always trying to work against water, trying to keep makeup nice for stage shows, and weddings etc. and I am always working against water I wanted to make a change, and take a look at how I can work with water or liquid and make it flow with my work, or even embrace the fact

great to show off your skills but if it doesn’t suit the theme then it can spoil the end result. Taking a brief and translating that into your work can be a bit daunting to begin with but the key is to be confident, know your stuff, listen to the team and use your imagination. I love to let the hair or face lead the way. I love to work with the natural direction of the hair and focus on the strongest facial features. I will create my styles based on how I am feeling in that moment. Sometimes I can change my mind 10 times creating one style and other times I will whip up a do in a few minutes without a second thought. I like to work independently and quietly, I will always let my models know to not be offended if I am not very chatty. When I am on set I am 100% focused on what I am there for. Inspiration is living and breathing all around us. You just have to keep an open mind. I have always been one of those people that

takes notice of small details.I never know when the next big idea will come. It just will, in the least expected way, at the least expected moment. I also have many talented friends, most of whom are in the industry. We collaborate together bouncing ideas off each other. It’s super fun sitting around with other creatives coming up with ideas and concepts and getting excited about what we are going to create. One of my favorite quotes that always inspires me to stay on top of my game is; “Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break
them like an artist.” by Pablo Picasso. Trend predictions: In Fashion - We can see the 90s era making a massive appearance on and off the runway in the coming months. Sequins, check prints & ruffles.. Yes you read that correctly; Ruffles! In Hair & Makeup - Accessorise with scrunchies, banana clips, accordion headbands, pop art colourful shadows & eyeliner and if you’re not a bold colour babe then earthy toned lips will be you go to look for the coming months.
better reward then that! CBMagazine: What do you find challenging about being a top hair stylist? Kat: People knowing your worth. As hair dressers we spend tens of thousands of dollars to get educated and are constantly spending money to stay up to date so that we can give our clients the best styles, cuts colors, so it is a challenge to have people debate your price with you or question your worth, and I think all stylists kind of have that problem where clients want to bargain with them, but they should know that you get what you pay for.
CBMagazine: I know the answer to this one, but have you ever done an editorial photoshoot before?
Kat: Yes I have done quite a few actually. I love it. Being a stylist I’m behind the chair all the time, and being able to get away from that and let the creativity flow freely and do crazy hair styles is great. There is no limit to what you can do and create! I think that’s a great outlet and I think a lot of hair stylists should get into that.
CBMagazine: There is an editorial that
you did with some Victorian wigs that I thought was amazing and made me want to work with you. Can you tell us about that?
Kat: Oh the Mary Antoinette! It was for a hair competition. I had a dream about the Kirstin Dunst Mary Antoinette and I became so inspired, like I need to make huge Victorian-esque hair pieces. So I literally went down to the hair store, bought a ton of extensions and just tweeked out on making these crazy, fluffy wigs to match each of the models and somehow it came together! I even had my mom sewing those little
